Giannis Antetokounmpo should now be in the lead for MVP. 🦌

[Left.A1]

Freak is the league's best player.

Stats and team success there.

Gimmick posters claim that there can only be one player in the “mvp conversation” at a time so this don’t matter

 

[#1 pick]

I take it nobody thinks Giannis is the MVP anymore?

He's up there for me. But this is Joel's award this year

The Bucks have a 11-6 record without him and he was horribly inconsistent over the first third of the season. I don't care for this "league's best player" shyt when he hasn't been a better performer than Embiid and Jokic this season.

As I said above, at the end of the day, nobody is going to give a fukk about this when the playoffs come around. It's why the entire discourse around it this season has been hilarious. Folks with their fake outrage about some shyt they'll toss aside after they get bored of that new toy.

 

[fifth column]

Let's hope for TheColi's sake he does slide right out of the conversation. Y'all can finally stop crying about a meaningless narrative-based award that you'll forget as soon as the playoffs come around.

I have no smoke for Jokic, the race has tightened up and he should be forced to run through the tape instead of being entitled

What makes you believe Jokic is "entitled"?

If Jokic wins and he’s favored then the playoffs will mean everything for him.

Ask the voting media, they want this for him badly, imo I don’t think Jokic cares either way

Everybody is gonna care.

A good amount of voters have podcasts. It'll be talked about all playoffs depending on the success of the winner.

The value of the playoffs (to him) won't change regardless if he wins MVP or not. You just conjured up this silly ass talking point.

Ask the media why he's entitled? I'm asking you why you think he's entitled?

If you don't think he cares either way, why call him entitled then? You're just arguing for the sake of at this point.

I can promise you the MVP will be the footnote during the postseason. There'll be an infinite amount of narratives that'll be talked about instead.

If Embiid is upset he doesn't have one. You don't think Joker would be upset if he don't get his third? When his play justifies it?

If the MVP loses before the other two. It'll be talked about non stop.

I don’t think joker is plugged in like that. He plays ball then goes about his business from what I could see

Jokic got pressure regardless if he wins or not, we saw how the media voted in that straw poll just a month ago and it wasn’t even close to be honest. I’ve heard a couple media guys say they hope he doesn’t win because of the backlash he’ll face if the Nuggets don’t do well

 

[BK The Great]

He’s been underlooked, I think this secured him to at least be in the run or leader up for it.

It's hilarious how you cats love to create these imaginary talking points just to justify your hate.
